President Obama does not intend to assert executive privilege over any of the documents requested by the Committee, Bauer writes.
I’m having a little trouble coming up with “may use executive privilege” from “ does not intend to assert exective privilege”. Is it just me?
I’m not a lawyer but I would believe using Executive Order to withhold documents from the Congress is very illegal! Perhaps unconstitutional!
But then since when he cared about the Constitution?
So let me get this straight, out of thousands of potential candidates, the man who thinks he is a prophet or God’s annointe selects one candidate...and then he keeps her past a secret from the country that she is supposed to serve?
History has many examples of rulers like this.
Gee ,love that TRANSPARENCY!!!
My Administration is committed to creating an unprecedented level of openness in Government. We will work together to ensure the public trust and establish a system of transparency, public participation, and collaboration. Openness will strengthen our democracy and promote efficiency and effectiveness in Government.
Government should be transparent. Transparency promotes accountability and provides information for citizens about what their Government is doing. Information maintained by the Federal Government is a national asset. My Administration will take appropriate action, consistent with law and policy, to disclose information rapidly in forms that the public can readily find and use. Executive departments and agencies should harness new technologies to put information about their operations and decisions online and readily available to the public. Executive departments and agencies should also solicit public feedback to identify information of greatest use to the public.
They may be able to hide the documents, but this is not a criminal investigation. The purpose is to learn about her to decide whether to let her in. If she intentionally hides her own documents, reasonable people have learned all they need to make a responsible decision.
What is that saying about swine and pearls again?
I guess if they want a fillibuster this would be the way to do it?
If he did that he is stamping her information as guilty
In a perfect world the Senate would say fine, we’ll use Senate privilege to reject her.
I swear — she’s really a guy named Vinnie in drag.
White House: Obama may use executive privilege to withhold Kagan documents
President Obama does not intend to assert executive privilege over any of the documents requested by the Committee, Bauer writes.
OMG I am so confused.
If they hold back and the RINOs don’t filibuster, we might as well surrender and become Rats.
And to think that Gibbs just spewed out today that they are a transparent administration.......
Her neck should be a disqualification!!
